Vermont’s commissioner of forests, parks, and recreation (@vtfpr_commish) always boasts the foliage here is the world’s best — and it’s awfully hard to argue his claim with the glorious fall we’ve been treated to here! #VT 🍂🍁
The view this week from Branbury State Park. We may be past full vibrancy but there's still great color out there, particularly in the south and west. Read the final foliage report of the season at https://t.co/hjXvojS3JX and give it up for the trees!

Forests may not need us, but we need them. The benefits are endless: clean air & water, habitat, recreation, & wood products we use every day. Not to mention their huge role in mitigating climate change. Thanks to @KevinGaissTV for sharing this message: https://t.co/lx56cwSm4J.

12 million American households heat with heating oil or propane and they will see the biggest hit, with costs expected to rise 54% and 43% respectively. Wood heat is affordable, renewable, and better for the climate, too. #feelgoodheat https://t.co/d0jUML56jr
